LES GEOSITES A KESRA (DORSALE TUNISIENNE). DIVERSITE DES PAYSAGES, PATRIMONIALISATION ET DEVELOPPEMENT TERRITORIAL LOCAL
Journal Title: Revue Roumaine de Géographie/Romanian Journal of Geography - Year 2017, Vol 61, Issue 1
Abstract
Kesra’s geosites (Tunisian Dorsale). Diversity of landscapes, heritage and local territorial development. Kesra and its borders, situated in the Tunisian Dorsal, represent a very rich patrimonial basin where diversified natural resources, the result of a long environmental evolution, and original historical monuments reveal the ancient human presence in this Mediterranean region of Tunisia. This work attempts first to reveal the value and the wealth of that area by characterizing and classifying various geosites of geo-tourist interest based on pre-established criteria. Secondly, this research makes a new approach to the heritage listing in this very specific domain in order to promote rural tourism (especially in the mountains), and to integrate various geosites into a new geo-tourist circuit that contributes to the development of that inner part of Tunisia.
